Conferred God: Started from Swallowing the Heaven-Repairing Stone

Chapter 464: Going to Zixiao Palace to Listen to the Teachings

Nowadays, it is well known in the prehistoric world that Ao Bing has obtained two of the three lamps of heaven, earth and man, and the only thing missing is a coffin palace lantern.

In this situation, if Ao Bing came to ask Ran Deng for the coffin lantern, Yuanshi Tianzun would definitely step in to stop him and would never let Ao Bing get his wish.

Because Yuanshi Tianzun and Ao Bing had a grudge over the killing of one of their disciples, he could no longer allow Ao Bing to continue growing and had to find a way to suppress him.

Otherwise, considering the current relationship between the orthodox and unorthodox sects, his remaining eleven true disciples would also be sent to the List of Gods by Ao Bing one by one.

How could Yuanshi Tianzun allow such a thing to happen? Therefore, he must try every possible means to prevent Ao Bing from becoming stronger.

Based on this, whatever Ao Bing wanted to do, he would destroy it and not let him achieve his wish.

Of course, for something like that which has been agreed upon by everyone, even if Yuanshi Tianzun is unwilling, he cannot come forward to disrupt it.

For example, everyone has agreed to respect Ao Bing as the leader of the prehistoric male immortals and allow him to obtain the Immortal Jade Book and the dragon-headed cane.

This move will undoubtedly greatly enhance Ao Bing's strength, but no matter how dissatisfied Yuanshi Tianzun is, he cannot disrupt this matter.

Because this was an agreement, if he dared to violate it, he would undoubtedly lose the trust of the world, which would lead to a sharp drop in the prestige of the saint and he would no longer have any credibility.

But asking for the coffin lantern from Randeng was not something that everyone agreed on. Therefore, if Ao Bing dared to do so, Yuanshi Tianzun had every reason to stop him.

After all, Master Ran Deng was also the deputy leader of the Chan sect. He was bullied by Ao Bing and forced to hand over his magic weapon. It was perfectly reasonable for Yuanshi Tianzun to stand up for him. No one could say that he was wrong.

Ao Bing had obviously anticipated this, so he described his request for the coffin lantern from Randeng as borrowing rather than robbing.

In this case, Yuanshi Tianzun would have no choice but to say nothing. Ao Bing had just made great contributions to the immortal way, and in order to heal his wounds, he specifically asked the Taoist Master Ran Deng to borrow a magic weapon. If he refused, it would be too inhumane.

"Randeng is in Kunlun Mountain now. Ever since he knew that you were obsessed with his coffin and palace lantern, he has been hiding in Kunlun Mountain and dared not come out, fearing that you would come and rob him."

Coming back to his senses, Master Tongtian smiled. When Ao Bing and Ran Deng first clashed, it was obvious that Ran Deng was stronger.

But as time passed, as Ao Bing established the Immortal Alliance and became the leader of the Immortal Alliance, the gap between him and the Burning Lamp Taoist began to widen, like the gap between heaven and earth, within reach but out of reach.

From then on, Randeng hid in Kunlun Mountain and did not come out, for fear that one day he would go out and meet Ao Bing.

As for offering treasures to survive, Ran Deng wanted to, but Yuanshi Tianzun would never agree. If the deputy leader of the Chan sect was forced to offer treasures to survive, how could his Chan sect save its reputation if it got out?

Therefore, no matter what, Yuanshi Tianzun would not agree to this matter.

Since he did not agree to burn the lamp and offer treasures to survive, Yuanshi Tianzun had the obligation to ensure his safety. This was the reason why he hid in Kunlun Mountain and did not come out.

As long as he is still in Kunlun Mountain, his safety can be guaranteed. No matter how strong Ao Bing is, he dare not attack Yuxu Palace.

But if he leaves Kunlun Mountain, even Yuanshi Tianzun cannot guarantee his safety 100%.

After all, a saint is only close to being omnipotent, not truly omnipotent, and there are still many things he cannot do.

"He really cherishes his life and hides in Kunlun Mountain. I really can't do anything to him. But I have changed my mind now. I won't steal his coffin lantern anymore. I will borrow it instead."

With a hearty laugh, Ao Bing separated a wisp of his divine consciousness and headed towards Kunlun Mountain across an infinitely long distance.

He was seriously injured and unable to move, so he could only travel to Kunlun Mountain to see Randeng. But to be honest, the speed of traveling in spirit is faster than flying in the flesh.

But in the blink of an eye, Ao Bing's spiritual consciousness appeared outside Kunlun Mountain.

The reason why he didn't go in directly was mainly because this place was a saint's dojo. If he went in without saying hello, he would easily be mistaken for an invader and killed by Yuanshi Tianzun.

Ao Bing has always been cautious and would never make such a low-level mistake and give Yuanshi Tianzun the opportunity to kill him.

"I am the human dragon from the Jiejiao sect. I have something to ask the Taoist Master Ran Deng. I hope you will come out and see me." Outside Kunlun Mountain, Ao Bing shouted towards the inside of the mountain.

After all, Randeng is also an elder of both religions, so you can call him whatever you want in private, but in public, you still have to use a respectful title and call him Taoist priest.

"Renlong, why is he here looking for me instead of recuperating in Beihai?"

Inside the Yuxu Palace, Ran Deng was startled when he suddenly heard Ao Bing's voice.

Although he knew that this was Kunlun Mountain and Ao Bing could not do anything to him, he could not help but feel afraid when he thought of Ao Bing's recent actions.

Too fierce!
He is willing to call Ao Bing the most evil person in the prehistoric world!

Even if the Demon Ancestor and the Taoist Ancestor were added together, the number of people with great supernatural powers they killed would probably not be as many as Ao Bing.

First, there was the battle of Longzhou, where nine great masters of supernatural powers were killed. Then there was the battle of Beihai, where Kunpeng was killed. Finally, there was the battle of eliminating demons in Beihai, which was even more exaggerated, where fourteen great masters of supernatural powers were killed in one battle.

After these three battles, a total of twenty-four powerful people died at the hands of Ao Bing.

This number is really too exaggerated. It is not unfair to call him the most vicious person in the prehistoric world.

Even if you look at the entire prehistoric world, you won't find a second person as vicious as him. It's truly unheard of and unseen.

Ao Bing was so ferocious that more than twenty people with great supernatural powers died at his hands. How could Ran Deng, who was only a Daluo Jinxian, not be afraid?
If Yuanshi Tianzun had not forced him to offer his treasures to save his life, he would have run to Jin'ao Island and begged Tongtian Jiaozhu to hand over the coffin and palace lantern to Ao Bing.

As for why he didn't hand it over to Ao Bing directly, it was of course because he was afraid. He was afraid that after Ao Bing saw him, he would not give him a chance to speak and would just kill him.

If that's the case, then his death would be too unfair.

It would be safer to ask Master Tongtian to pass it on. Considering the friendship they had when they were both listening to sermons in Zixiao Palace, Master Tongtian would not kill him unless he was beyond intolerance.

“Those who are good do not come, and those who come are not good.”

With a sigh, Taoist Ran Deng packed up, left Yuxu Palace, and walked out of the mountain.

Although he knew that Ao Bing had come with bad intentions, he had to meet him. Because Ao Bing was different now. Not to mention his strength, just his identity, he was the leader of the male immortals in the prehistoric world.

As one of the ancient male immortals, how could Randeng dare not meet Ao Bing's summons?
"Greetings to the Emperor. I wonder what the Emperor wants to see me about?"

From a distance, Randeng saw Ao Bing waiting outside the mountain, and hurried forward to greet him.

Ao Bing called him Taoist priest out of courtesy, but he couldn't be arrogant and really think of himself as Ao Bing's elder. If so, wouldn't the prehistoric world be filled with Ao Bing's elders?

By then, everyone would be taking advantage of their seniority in front of Ao Bing. Wouldn't his dignity as the leader of the prehistoric male immortals be completely gone? How would he have the face to rule over all the immortals in the future?
"You called me here because you have something to ask of you. I am seriously injured from exorcising demons, and my foundation is in danger."

"Even with the help of the two great treasures of good fortune, the Azure Lotus of Good Fortune and the Innate Five Directions Flag, it is difficult to recover as before."

"I need to borrow the Taoist's coffin palace lantern, and use the other two innate magic lamps to operate the power of the three talents together to sort out my injuries. Only in this way can I recover completely." "Therefore, I have no other purpose this time, just to borrow the Taoist's coffin palace lantern, and I hope the Taoist will help me."

Ao Bing didn't waste any words. He was sure that Ran Deng wouldn't dare to refuse, so he went straight to the point.

"So that's how it is. The Emperor has done a great job in eliminating demons and has greatly increased the prestige of our immortal path. As a member of the immortal path, who wouldn't be proud of it?"

"I only regret that I am not strong enough to fight alongside the Emperor. It is truly shameful."

"Now that the Emperor can use me, it can be regarded as my contribution to the exorcism of demons. I am grateful to him so much, how can I refuse?"

"The coffin lantern is here, Your Majesty, please take it and use it."

Randeng was very sensible. He directly cut off the connection between himself and the coffin lantern and handed it to Ao Bing without mentioning returning it.

It can be seen that in his heart, he had already made up his mind not to take back the coffin and palace lantern.

"Master, you are so polite. Please rest assured. Since I have taken your magic weapon and caused your strength to drop drastically, I have the obligation to ensure your safety during this period."

"Here, I promise you that as long as the coffin palace lantern is still in my hands, no one in the prehistoric world can harm you unless you kill the disciples of Jiejiao."

Ao Bing promised very seriously. He had to put on a full show. He didn't say anything, just took the coffin and the palace lantern and left. The other great masters were not fools.

Seeing this scene, how could one not know that he was robbing someone else's magic weapon under the guise of borrowing it.

If someone else did this kind of thing, it wouldn't be a big deal, at most they would just get a bad reputation.

But Ao Bing can't do that. He is the leader of all the male immortals in the ancient times. If his reputation gets ruined, the powerful masters will drive him down from this position in the name of maintaining the reputation of the immortals.

Therefore, Ao Bing could not do anything that would ruin his reputation, at least not in public. Even if he had to do it, he could not be caught by others.

Just like what Ao Bing is doing now, while borrowing the magic weapon of Ran Deng, he also publicly stated that he would ensure his safety.

Once this attitude is shown, who would dare to say that he is robbing other people's magic weapons in the name of borrowing?

See? He could obviously have robbed it, but he chose to borrow it instead. And he borrowed it for a fee, not for free.

This……

This is really touching!

"Thank you, Emperor!"

Hearing this, Randang was overjoyed.

He really didn't expect Ao Bing to say that. He thought Ao Bing just didn't want to be known as a bully, so he called it borrowing the coffin and palace lanterns from him instead of robbing them outright.

But if he really wanted to rob, there was no need for him to say anything to protect him from death.

Since he said that, there is only one meaning, that this time borrowing treasure is a real loan, the kind that you borrow and return, not the kind that you borrow without returning.

Why do you say that? Because Ao Bing is now the most sought-after figure in the prehistoric world, and his strength is even more powerful. If he wants to save a person's life, it is almost the same as if a saint were willing to die to save a person.

Since his words had been spoken, there was absolutely no room for regret. Therefore, if Ao Bing did not want to protect him for the rest of his life, he had to return the coffin lantern.

When the coffin and palace lantern are returned, his agreement to protect the safety of the lantern will be invalidated, otherwise it will continue.

"Remember, the premise for me to protect you is that you are not allowed to attack the disciples of Jiejiao. I hope you will remember this and don't violate it."

"Otherwise, the agreement will be voided immediately. Not only will I not return the coffin and palace lantern to you, I will also take your life."

After giving Randeng a final warning, Ao Bing withdrew his spiritual thoughts and returned to his main body with the coffin and palace lantern.

"hateful!"

Yuanshi Tianzun, who witnessed the whole scene, couldn't help but speak out in hatred after seeing Ao Bing leave.

He wanted to intervene in the matter and ask Ran Deng not to lend the coffin palace lantern to Ao Bing. However, the conditions offered by Ao Bing were too good, so good that he didn't know how to ask Ran Deng to refuse.

Borrowing the treasure caused your strength to drop drastically, so I will protect you from death. With Ao Bing's identity, it is not inadequate to say such words. If Ran Deng dares to refuse, it would be ungrateful.

Therefore, under this circumstance, it was not easy for him to intervene and disrupt the matter, and he could only watch Ao Bing take away the coffin and palace lantern.

As for why he didn't take the coffin palace lantern from Randeng and put it beside him, wouldn't Ao Bing have no chance to get it?

It's a good idea, but it's unrealistic. As everyone knows, the coffin palace lantern is the companion treasure of Randeng. If Yuanshi Tianzun takes it, how will the world view him in the future?

They would not say that Ran Deng did this to avoid disaster, but would only say that Yuanshi Tianzun coveted the treasures of his fellow Taoists.

Ao Bing cares about his reputation, and Yuanshi Tianzun cares about his reputation even more, so he would never do such a thing.

……

"I have obtained the coffin palace lantern. The three lanterns of heaven, earth and man are finally gathered. Next, I can use this as a coordinate to cross time and space, return to the past, and go to Zixiao Palace to listen to the teachings."

Putting the three lights into the three flowers on top of his head, Ao Bing said excitedly.

It has been said before that after the three lamps of heaven, earth and man are combined into one, their greatest use is to be able to recreate the scene of the Taoist ancestor preaching in the Zixiao Palace in the past, for the owner to comprehend.

However, no matter how clearly the scene is recorded, it is impossible to preserve all its mysteries and it is far inferior to listening to it live.

But Daozu’s sermon has already ended. It happened in the past. How can we go and listen to it in person?

In the past, Ao Bing really couldn't do it. But now, as he has become a mythical Daluo and has the ability to travel through time and space, he can do it.

So what if it happened in the past? As long as he reversed the cause and effect, Ao Bing could also become one of the three thousand mortal guests of Zixiao Palace.

Of course, the Zixiao Palace is far away in the depths of chaos, and there is an almighty being like Daozu in charge. Even if Ao Bing could reverse cause and effect and go back to the past, he probably wouldn't be able to find the Zixiao Palace.

In this case, he needed a treasure as coordinates to help him confirm the location of Zixiao Palace.

And is there any treasure more suitable than the Three Lamps of Heaven, Earth and Man? It can even record the teachings of the Taoist Ancestor, and naturally it can also serve as an anchor to help Ao Bing lock the location of the Purple Sky Palace.
